A smoky spicy floral rather than a hops-fuelled fury, this warrior of the night throws the first punch: carnation, with its red-hot clove effect. An unusual nuance of malt, toasted and rich, is complemented by smoked tea. A hint of vintage violet permeates the intriguing melting candle drydown.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is a scent for close, low-lit spaces where the air carries smoke, fabric and skin rather than brightness. It feels most natural on someone who wants a composed but unmistakable presence: polished, slightly severe, and quietly magnetic.
How to wear
Best worn in cooler weather, when its smoke, leather and spice can unfold without becoming too dense. Apply lightly at first; one or two sprays are enough to let the carnation and smoked tea project cleanly, while the malted, violet-toned base stays intimate on skin.
Who it’s for
For wearers who like smoky leathers, spiced florals and compositions with a dry, textured edge. It will appeal to those who prefer character over sweetness, and who enjoy fragrances that feel artistic, slightly old-world and a little mysterious.

Collaborators
Virginie Choné shaped the house’s creative direction and four-handed development process, guiding the concept and emotional brief behind the fragrance line. Jean Sauvage, the brand’s exclusive in-house perfumer, translates that vision into the finished formula in Grasse, working within Binet-Papillon’s natural, artisanal style.

No. 10 – Night Warrior’s concept
No. 10 – Night Warrior sits within Binet-Papillon’s poetic, emotion-led universe, where fragrances are conceived as singular creative acts rather than trend-led releases. The scent itself suggests a nocturnal figure in motion: carnation’s clove heat, smoked tea, malt and leather creating a dark, textured composition with a candlelit violet finish.
Extra info
Binet-Papillon’s fragrances are developed in Grasse and are known for their high natural content and artisanal positioning.
